<p>the MUN and class rank are really good, the rest is quite balanced, so you have a very good chance if you ask me.</p>

3

<p>everythings great, but you might wanna bump up the SAT writing</p>

4

<p>only one ap test/course in three years?</p>

5

<p>not worth retaking the SAT to take another crack at the Writing. A 1560 on the M/V is quite enough.</p>

<p>elaborate on your debate experience and your journalism experience. how important are these in your life? How much do you care about them? What specifically have you done?</p>
